North Eugene Road Construction to Cause Traffic Delays Through December
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

EUGENE, Ore. — Residents of north Eugene are being advised to expect heavy traffic and significant delays as construction work along Gilham Road gets underway. The project, which began on Monday morning, is expected to last through December, with work focusing on the intersection of Gilham and Ayers, and continuing through to the intersection of Gilham and Don Juan Avenue.

Crews will be working throughout the coming months to complete a variety of infrastructure improvements. The scope of the project includes the installation of storm sewers, construction of water quality facilities, and the building of retaining walls. Additionally, sidewalks and accessible curb ramps will be added to enhance safety and accessibility in the area.

The construction is expected to cause disruptions for daily commuters, as work is expected to impact traffic flow. Local residents and drivers are encouraged to seek alternative routes whenever possible, and to be prepared for potential delays.

City officials have stated that, while the project will cause short-term inconvenience, the improvements to Gilham Road will provide long-term benefits to the community, improving both infrastructure and public safety. As the project continues, updates will be provided to help keep the public informed of any changes to road conditions or timelines.

Motorists are urged to drive with caution around work zones and to adhere to all posted signage and detours.
